You know what it feels like to be “in the flow” –-those times when your words and actions seem supported by creation –when for example, a specific person was needed, they would show up; when a certain set of circumstances was necessary for a project to go on, the pieces seemed to magically fall into place. It could be said that in those moments, your Highest Self was joyfully guiding your actions.

You have also probably experienced what it feels like when you are not in the flow, when you have wandered off your path and joy seems replaced by struggle. In those times, things do not move easily; the “wick won’t light”.

What can bring you back to your path is consciously tuning in —repeatedly reawakening to peace and your Higher Self. In the space of joyful awakening there is access to deep knowledge of what to create, speak, release, and leverage in the moment and for the future of your business.

When you feel a peaceful joy, you’re near the truth.

Unquiet and off center, jealous or greedy, what you do seems pretentious and those around you insincere.

Speakthe clearest truth you know, and let the dis-ease heal.

If words are tinged withlying, they’re like water dripping into an oil lamp.

These seven, thirty-minute meditations will clear and enhance your inner landscape as it relates to specific core components of a strong business. You will be able to respond to external events with more awareness and clarity, and hence, change the business results that you deliver over time.

I am enough and more than enough. I am small but I am big and I am beyond anything I can ever imagine. I am whole, expansive, infinity can’t even hold me. What I am is measured in smiles, hugs, laughter, and in the stars, in stillness and in silence and yet I am immeasurable. and what I am is what I am and I LOVE who I am. and I need no one and no thing else. I am enough and more than enough.

Recently, I asked a successful finance director, who has been incorporating meditation into his business life for several years now, his own experience of the benefits of committing to a meditative practice.

Along with some expected benefits:

-Being un-rattled by issues arising when things seem to be going wrong.

-Ability to be present, to observe, not to engage in negative emotion, not because I am suppressing it – but genuinely because I do not need to go there anymore.

He also offered up the most yummy, juicy benefit:

I am happier! … AND what is a surprise – now becoming wealthier!…. Meditation energy is the type of energy that lets the stuff you no longer want go and allows in the new good stuff ….

I had to drop my old ways of doing business which worked financially, but were not based around happiness. So I had to drop some old ways of thinking – including with it ways that made money – without knowing how I was going to make a new way work financially. When you realize you want to do that, that’s a ‘Gulp’ moment!

But when you have your own heart on your side, well that’s alignment, and things you cannot foretell start to engage, to happen and you get there.

Beautiful.

By improving your inner landscape, meditation helps you to respond to external events with more awareness and clarity, and hence, change the business and HAPPINESS results that you deliver over time.
